Stay-cation Or Vacation?

Sometimes the best place to relax and unwind is not the beach or the mountains, it is in your own home.

Sofa Comfortable Home Male Couch Life Relaxation

www.maxpixel.net

For the most part, my family always stays home around the summertime, we go to our local pool, relax outside on the deck with lemonade and soak up the sun. Staying home is cost-efficient and allows you more freedom with what you decide to do for your summer. I love staying home for the summer. Especially with college on the horizon, I want to spend time with my family and friends before I go off to college. We recently got our deck redone, now with more sunshine and comfy couches, it is now a perfect place to relax and read a book, go and tan, or sit around the fire with your friends and make some s'mores. Home is where the heart is, it is a comfortable spot. Making your home a place that you want to stay at, allow your home to be the ultimate vacation spot! Sometimes the best place to relax and unwind is not the beach or the mountains, it is in your own home.

Vacations

Endless Ocean

A perfect escape from the stresses of everyday life. Going to the beach and enjoying someplace new and exciting ends in some of the best memories of your life! While staying at home can be super fun, going out and seeing the world and appreciating the earth as it allows us to experience real freedom and happiness. I am going to California this summer, and I cannot be more excited to go to a new place and see new things! The idea that you have to go somewhere new and exciting is overrated, yes, most people expect you to go to Bora Bora for a month, but a vacation can be as simple as going to the beach for the day! Even a small trio similar to that is a great way to have some fun with friends and family. Road Trips can also be fun! Why fly when you can see new things on your way to your final destination! No matter what you decide to do, enjoy your summer while it lasts and makes some great memories with amazing people that are in your life, that is what matters the most.

15 Struggles Of Having A Resting Bitch Face

Yes, I'm fine. No, I'm not mad about anything.

Revelist

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

A Candid Letter to My Best Friends Ex

Because this is the real form of torture you deserve.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

College is a time of gaining independence, exploring new things, and copious amounts of Netflix. If you're like me, you often find yourself laughing at the sheer ridiculousness of the situations you find yourself in. Here are ten times Bob's Burgers accurately captured college life.

1. What you're pretty sure your upstairs neighbors do at 3am every morning.

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Rollins College

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
